Classic Caesar Dressing [Food Processor Attachment]
The Vitamix Food Processor chops and combines all the ingredients in this classic dressing with ease. It creates a thick dressing meant to coat romaine leaves with particles of cheese, and a slight hint of anchovy.
Ingredients
- 20 g (6 ) oil packed anchovies, drained
- (1 ) garlic clove, peeled
- (1 ) egg yolk
- (2 Tablespoons) fresh lemon juice
- (1 teaspoon) Dijon mustard
- (1 teaspoon) ground black pepper
- 35 g (¼ cup) parmesan cheese, grated, in blender or processor
- 60 ml (¼ cup) extra virgin olive oil
- 180 ml (¾ cup) vegetable oil
Directions
- Combine the olive oil and vegetable oil in a small bowl and set aside.
- Fit the Food Processor with the Multi-Use Blade. Place all other ingredients besides oil into the Vitamix container and secure the lid. Start the machine and process for 45 seconds.
- Once 45 seconds has elapsed, pour the combined oils into the Small Food Pusher that has a small emulsion hole incorporated at the bottom. Allow this oil to slowly drizzle into bowl while machine is running.
- Process for an additional 10-15 seconds to ensure all oil is incorporated.
Chef's Notes
- For more versatility and freshness, chop your own Parmesan by cutting a small block into cubes and using the Multi-Use Blade in the Food Processor Work Bowl to break it down.
- A small amount of water can be added to this dressing if you prefer a thinner style.
